It is not suggested that you leave the nitrous silenoids under pressure for long periods of time, it may damage them.

NX even recommends that you close the bottle between runs at the drap strip though I don't. I definitely wouldn't leave the bottle open all day. It might not hurt the solenoids, but why take a chance? Believe me when I tell you, a remote bottle opener is worth every penny of its cost. It takes 4 seconds to go from fully closed to fully open with the NX version.

I would recommend a heater - it is the best way to keep your pressure consistant. Even though it may be warm where you are when the pressure drops after a run you want to get the bottle back to pressure up quickly
The Dynotune Heater is the best on the market - Fully adjustable - turns on when pressure drops by 50 PSI - 300 watts - and $139.00 complete!

A remote bottle opener is awesome too - check out our full billet aluminum opener and the features we provide - no product comes close! $189.00 We also show a video on our site --- check it out! http://www.dynotunenitrous.com/store...p?idproduct=16

Thanks,
Dean

I would suggest that you invest in a window switch, better to buy a window switch now than having to replace engine parts later.

definitly get a window switch. I have seen Dynotune products in action in person and I am highly impressed. Thier bottle opener is one of the best on the market. Are you running a fuel pressure safety switch?

The wiring for all of them is basically the same and yes, they're easy to install. As to which one you should buy, take a look at my recent rpm window switch poll.
